Via a recent link on whedonesque, I stumbled across a series at meloukhia.net about feminism and Joss Whedon's shows. The one linked to on whedonesque is on Dollhouse, and is a bit disappointing--it opens arguments without really exploring them, to be honest. But some of the older articles are worth checking out.
Like this one on sex and punishment on Joss's shows--not anything that hasn't been said before, but still, nice to see someone examining it again.
But I really, really like this two part exploration of how Angel is really pretty antifeminist. It especially delves into Cordelia's character and hints at how it was destroyed (I still want to yell "WTF, JOSS?" about that one), and it had one especially insightful quote I wanted to share.
We see a recurring theme with Cordelia: she is not allowed control of her body, because her body “needs” to be used by others. Yes. I had never, ever noticed this before (probably mostly because I got into Angel before I really learned how to read texts from a feminist perspective), but it is so, so true. From demon pregnancies to visions forced on her against her will to having her body stolen from her to be the vessel of Jasmine, poor Cordy is never allowed to be Cordy for very long before her body is stolen from her again. Since she's far and away my favorite character on that show (with Gunn in a close second), and since I love her so hardcore on Buffy, where she's always HBIC, this still makes me bitter.
And then Fred goes through the same thing! It's troubling, and not something I'd thought about on a conscious level, even if I would have told you that Angel isn't exactly a feminist show.
On the other hand, the second part includes some truly great moments for women on Angel and also has some love for Lilah, who I think is just an incredibly fabulous character in every way.
I don't agree with all her points in all the articles (obviously), but still, there's some interesting stuff going on all of them. I really appreciate that she's examining all this from the point of view of a fan who still sees problematic aspects of shows she loves (just like me!).
ALSO: Go vote for Buffy here! Because River is beating her, and we can't have that! As much as I love River, Buffy is my hero.
[ETA] While we're on the topic of Joss-criticism, I thought I'd throw out this link, too, since it's someone who is far more knowledgeable than I am calling him out about something else that's really bothered me about his shows.

First off, I’m working on drabbles. Most of them have run away with me (meaning gotten reeeeally long), but I’m having fun with them, and they should be up fairly soon, hopefully. Thanks for your prompts!
Second, take a look at how absolutely gorgeous and Buffy-like Sarah Michelle Gellar is looking in these amazing photos from Veronika Decides to Die. Every time I think I can’t get more excited about this movie, I do. The book and I have a complicated relationship, but I think the movie could be great. And there’s no doubt in my mind that Smidge is going to hit it out of the park. Nobody does pain like she does. *hops up and down* I’m so excited about this movie! (And I can already tell I'm going to be writing fic for this. I can already tell.)
Third, it’s time for another of my ridiculously long and rambly TV posts! *WOOT*
Yesterday, I finished up with How I Met Your Mother, and yes, I did watch four seasons in less than one week, thanks for asking. I don’t watch many sitcoms at all, they don’t really appeal to me, but I love this show.
Last night I watched Dollhouse’s “Epitaph One,” and all I have to say is
DAMN.
Joss Whedon, MAKE THIS SHOW. This episode is post-apocalyptic and twisted and gorgeous and SO FREAKING GOOD. Seriously, this is the show I’ve been waiting for from him. I WANT IT I WANT IT I WANT IT.
( cut for spoilers for Epitaph One )
Also, there were some pretty great references to the original pilot of the show “Echo.” As for that, FOX IS MADE OF FAIL. This episode was infinitely better than the pilot that was actually aired.
( spoilers? can they be spoilers if we already know everything that happened next? )
So that's what I've been watching lately. Now, back to writing.

What in the Slashy Heck?
Jul. 1st, 2009 04:10 pmI'm not reading the Season 8 comics, mostly because from what I've read spoiler-wise, Buffy doesn't act like Buffy, and since she is my girl, my favorite character, and one of my heroes, I have absolutely no interest in watching her act not-Buffy-like. Also (and yes, this probably makes me a bad fan), I don't really have much interest in reading it if Spike isn't around in at least some capacity (I don't demand my shipper heart be satisfied, but everyone's better when they're interacting with Spike). For that reason, I'd be open to reading Angel: After the Fall and Spike: After the Fall if I could get them for free, but I'm not a big enough comic fan to spend money on them. I loved the ending of "Not Fade Away," even if a lot of the stuff leading up to it didn't make any sense, and I'm happy with sticking with my fic from here on out.
All that to say, this little bit of a comic that just popped up on whedonesque is the first Buffy comic I've seen. Only a few pages, but I had tons of questions.
( spoilers liek whoa )
And that was your daily dose of me being a fangirl. Carry on.

Jun. 20th, 2009 07:58 pmMaybe everyone's seen this before, but it blew my mind. Mostly because I didn't believe it could be done in a more serious way like this.
From the website: In this remixed narrative Edward Cullen from the Twilight Series meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer at Sunnydale High. It's an example of transformative storytelling serving as a critique of Edward's character and generally creepy behavior. Through Buffy's eyes some of the more patriarchal gender roles and sexist Hollywood tropes embedded in the Twilight saga are exposed in hilarious ways.
But honestly? I think it's sadder and scarier than it is funny. Although the parts where you know she's supposed to be talking to Spike or Angel are pretty hilarious. But this made me love Buffy more than ever--never has there been a better use for her eyerolls. She just doesn't have time for this shit.
And I haven't seen the Twilight movie, but if these clips are any indication, it has to contain the worst acting known to man.

Okay, y'all, you know I never cuss...
May. 26th, 2009 12:58 amReally. I almost never cuss. And I really hate this word. But it has to be said, and it has to be said like this:
What. The. FUCK?
My mama would be so ashamed of me talking like that. Seriously, she'd probably wash my mouth out with soap (yes, that actually happened to me as a child. Once). But I'm sorry, Mama. No other words will suffice.

For you Dollhouse fans, you might want to read this article. It's called "Why Dollhouse Struggles and 'Fringe' Soars," which might make you think it's bashing, but it's not. It's actually a pretty thoughtful look at why Fringe is doing so well and Dollhouse isn't.
Also, it's got this summation that thrilled me to death:
On Dollhouse, no one's quite so cut and dried. The white-knight FBI agent out to rescue the girl is paranoid, slightly creepy, and ultimately putting her in danger. The bodyguard who keeps her in her cage also loves her like a father. The icy mommy figure is secretly ravaged by guilt and regret. The lovable wacky nerd is a self-loathing sociopath. The doctor with the scarred-up face is kindly and compassionate -- right up until she isn't. And the damsel in distress herself is in no particular hurry to be rescued, and may actually be the most powerful one of all. With the possible exception of Dushku's Echo and the other dolls -- who are literally different people every week -- there's no one on Dollhouse you can feel entirely comfortable rooting for. And we all know how much viewers love that sort of confusion.
Because every line is ridiculously true. And why I'm enjoying this show so much.
I'll go ahead and warn you that there are spoilers for Fringe (who on my flist is still watching it? I couldn't get into the first episode, and so I never went anywhere with it--is it actually worth checking out, or is it just okay?) and a few allusions to the finale of Dollhouse, but it's cool, and fair to both shows.
Also, anytime I get to use my Victor/Sierra icon (OTP!), I'm a happy girl.

I don't know. Revelations and shocks and developments, but I think I'm going to have to watch this episode a few more times to really decide about how I feel.

When did Dollhouse get so freakin' good?
May. 2nd, 2009 06:04 pmHonestly, I kind of hate to say this, but I really didn't think it would ever get this good. I like Joss's stuff--he made my favorite show ever, plus two others that I really love, plus the joyful angstiness that is Dr. Horrible--but I'm actually not one of those "Joss is god" people. And because I was skeptical on the subject of Eliza, I was skeptical about the show ever getting really, really good.
But it has.
( spoilers and such )
Yeah.
Now for something meme-y, since I've missed y'all. More as to why I've been gone in the next post.
THE 'ABC' MEME: For those unfamiliar, first you pick a letter, from which you pick a prompt. Then you pick a fandom, RPF or crossover and a character or pairing. In return you'll receive a ficlet of some kind.
But it has.

Yeah.
